Guest guest Posted October 27, 2008 Report Posted October 27, 2008 On my second visit to the Pulmonologist he dropped what I call the bomb. He told me in no uncertain terms that if the biopsy returned results that he expected there was little that he would be able to do for me. The biopsy confirmed the worst and then went further. It came back as a dual primary dx, LCH and UIP. My diseases may be rare but a " dual primary " is even rarer. I am now thirty (30) months out and only recently was scripted for 02. A TX is possibly in my future but ultimately that is for the DR's and fate (or Providence) to decide. To this day I appreciate his honesty and forthrightness. I do so because it allowed me to get my life in order and begin to live again. Peace be with you. LCH/UIP 5/06 CA Quote
